Sending a Report as E-Mail

When viewing a report on screen, you can elect to email it to another user, a supplier, or a customer. Be sure to select Print on Screen? on the Report Disposition screen, otherwise this feature will not be available to you. After the report runs and is displayed on your screen, select OPTION 7 (press OPTION then 7). The overlay shown in Figure 27 appears and you can define recipient and subject information. You can add comments by selecting the ADD COMMENTS button as shown in Figure 28. To email the report, select ENTER Enter (check mark) until the report display reappears. Note that this feature is only available on UNIX installations that function as, or interface to, a Mail Server.
